Once again, I have so much to write and so little motivation. Do I write about the local lawyer and former Idaho Concressional candidate who is growing God’s pot plant on his front lawn (one of many great quotes from Tuesday’s Post Falls Press article: “. . . this was a proverbial burning bush, this […]

Happy “Get Drunk And Blow Stuff Up” day! (GDABSUD, if you want something short and easy to pronounce) Well, I’ve got to go play with the grill (charcoal, not gas) and make sure none of the rugrats in the pool drowns. Or if they do that it’s not the neighbor-girl, ’cause that would really screw […]
